Chapter 566: Chapter 567: Director Tang Gets Angry Chapter 566: Chapter 567: Director Tang Gets Angry Provincial Military Region.

Tang Husheng slammed his fist heavily on the desk!

With eyes wide as copper bells, he glared at his secretary Chen Cheng, “The north is about to enter winter, what does it mean to divert supplies to support outsiders now? Are we not caring for the common people anymore?”

Chen Cheng, with documents in hand, halted his back, “Commander, not only our Provincial Military Region, but all major military regions across the country are required to allocate a part of their military supplies.”

“Report back up for me. No matter which side is being diverted, the five northern provinces are not suitable for diversion, especially the adjacent Provincial Military Region. The military’s interests have already been conceded to the common people for the better part of this past year.

Now, whether it’s clothing or food, all the combat units below have already cut down to the bone and cannot further reduce their consumption. If we make more cuts, how are we supposed to protect our homes and defend our country! They might as well starve to death!”

Chen Cheng didn’t say a word in retort or explanation, calmly accepting the commander’s fury.

He knew in his heart that once the order had been transported to the major military regions, it was already set in stone.

No matter how angry the commander was, it was in vain, as this order clearly came with an irrepressible force.

However, Chen Cheng was also not at ease.

Since the turmoil began at the Northern Border, many troops had been dispatched to support the northward front.

To not even mention supplies, the Northern Border suffers frigid weather, and the best equipment has already been committed to the border.

In the inland areas below, various security zones are now performing their defense duties under extreme pressure with limited manpower.

Soldiers are humans too, no different from ordinary people, needing food and sleep to function.

Already struggling with poor nutrition and heavy work tasks, the stress they’re under has reached a very dangerous level.

What is expected now, to really proceed to the point of unyielding steelmaking hardship?

Before it was hard to eat well, now it is hard to eat enough, even impossible to eat at all.

The first winter after the Apocalypse is almost upon us, with most of the security zones in the north built at the foot of mountains.

With heavy snow sealing the mountains, how to rearrange everything properly will need manpower and various material support.

At this time, the major military regions are already tense enough covertly vying for benefits for their own jurisdictions, and now they’re even supposed to exchange supplies with foreign states?

Chen Cheng sighed deeply in his heart.

Tang Husheng stewed in anger at the military region, only returning to the military compound under the cover of night.

It was already late at night. When he got home, Su Shu was dozing on the living room couch.

Today, Aunt Song’s chronic stomach pain flared up again. After giving her medicine and letting her rest, dinner and household chores were all taken care of by her.

The children had eaten and played and were now asleep.

Glancing at the wall clock, it was nearly midnight and Father Tang had not yet returned.

The military compound has an internal communication channel, and Father Tang had mentioned that since his daughter-in-law had come over, he would come home if there were no major incidents.

Therefore, Su Shu, as his junior, kept waiting at the living room door.

To pass the time, she had taken out the Tang Family’s photo album that Aunt Song had found for her.

Flipping through photos of Zelin’s childhood, she eventually fell asleep.

It was unclear how much time had passed when the sound of a car was heard outside.

She opened her eyes and got up to open the door.

Tang Husheng, with a stern face as he got out of the car, hadn’t expected her to answer the door.

The anger on his face, not yet subsided, was just seen by Su Shu.

“Haven’t you gone to bed yet?”

“Mm, Dad, come inside, it’s cold outside.”

Tang Husheng entered and changed his shoes, his eyes catching the sight of the meal left for him on the dining table.

He paused for a moment.

Su Shu said, “Dad, take a seat, I’ll go warm up the meal,” and with that, she carried the dishes into the kitchen.

Tang Husheng paused and didn’t object, he had been too upset to eat all afternoon and evening, and indeed his stomach was hurting.

He took a seat on the sofa, and an old photo caught his eye.

A family portrait from his youth suddenly invaded his sight.
